Now, suppose those same citiitos should contract with other men to do tie same thing the would ba Just as responsible, becauta, what a man does by another, bo does by himself , The drunkards and those who make men drunk, the gambler and others of the same lawless class, take great pains to secure the election of suoh officers as will protect tnom in their crimes, or who are not capable of enforcing tha laws. They do this tor solf-prbteotion, and bo ouo can blame them tor taxing so wise a precaution. No one wi.l claim that, of themselves, this pernicious olas could yxeroise so much influence. Tbey derive aid for some quarter. The fact is patent, that they exert a contiofiiig influence in our city and country, and that they could not do so without the aid of some who do not belong to their eJass. It becomes us, therefore, to enquire how arid by whom is (bis aid furnished? . There are' very fow proprietori of public houses or saloons in th's city, wo oWn tbe premises tbey occupy. ; As a general rulo tbey are tenants. They retti thbli houses and rooms of men of ehifae'ter', wealth, and influence.

These' provide in express terms for this illegal trafl$6', ot H is tacitly understood between the parties'; that it shall be carried on under them. . 1ft ettW ease the contract is illegal, and it oodtesfe'd, it could not ba enforced.

A single letter is often of the greatest importance, and a small mistake, frequently ehangea the whole afioct of aa article. Some very funny stories ara told of mishaps of thia character, and we give below some ef the best. An English paper once stated tbat tbe Russian Gen Backinolikowaky was foand dead with 'a long word in bis mouth.' It should have been 'sword.' In thii , case, however, tbe printer eould not have been blamed for leaving out a Utter after setting up the Rattan name correetly. During tbe Mexican war one of tiib' English news papers hurriedly announced an important item of news front Mexico that Gen Pol- low and (7 of bis men had been lest 'in a bottle.' It should have read 'battle.'

A single letter is often of the greatest importance, and a small mistake, frequently ehangea the whole afioct of aa article. Some very funny stories ara told of mishaps of thia character, and we give below some ef the best. An English paper once stated tbat tbe Russian Gen Backinolikowaky was foand dead with 'a long word in bis mouth.' It should have been 'sword.' In thii , case, however, tbe printer eould not have been blamed for leaving out a Utter after setting up the Rattan name correetly. During tbe Mexican war one of tiib' English news papers hurriedly announced an important item of news front Mexico that Gen Pol- low and (7 of bis men had been lest 'in a bottle.' It should have read 'battle.' ' A lad hi a printing office came upon the name of Hecate, occuriog in a line like this: Ulffl Mtt th kttiU of Mm ImpmI kail- Tbe boy, thinking be had discovered an eiro'r', ran to ttti master printer and in quired eagerly whether there1 Was an e in cad.

W hen the book ap peared, to the horror ef the devout wor shipper the passage read 'We shall all be hanged in the twinkling' of an eye.' A newspaper recently ststoa. in's'fepbrt of a battle, that' the' confliot was dreadful, and tbat the enemy Waa repulsed with Kre lauehter (slaughter. A man was sr.id onoa to have been brought un to an uwer the charge' of baying eafe'n (beaten) a stags driver for demanding more -than hit fare.

In an account of a Fourth' of Jul dinner it was stated that none ot the poultry was eaten except the owtf (fowls.) A "MAKE, DP' BlUNDER. . A laughable7 mistake is shdwn'in this following mixing of two article0. on con corning a preacher, and the other abbu ite'tttdUtMadiiW, which occured ic Lurried "mklW'U1" i a pridtiog office : 'Rev JamfcirThoniMon. rector of St. An drew's chui-'oH) preacher to a large con course of pMbpleW'Slmday last.
